ToolStripContainer Control Overview
A ToolStripContainer has panels on its left, right, top, and bottom sides for positioning and rafting ToolStrip, MenuStrip, and StatusStrip controls. Multiple ToolStrip controls stack vertically if you put them in the left or right ToolStripContainer. They stack horizontally if you put them in the top or bottom ToolStripContainer. You can use the central ToolStripContentPanel of the ToolStripContainer to position traditional controls on the form.
Any or all ToolStripContainer controls are directly selectable at design time and can be deleted. Each panel of a ToolStripContainer is expandable and collapsible, and resizes with the controls that it contains.
